Evolution of 14-3-3 Proteins in Angiosperm Plants: Recurring Gene Duplication and Loss [PDF]
Plants, 2021 14-3-3 proteins are key regulatory factors in plants and are involved in a broad range of physiological processes. We addressed the evolutionary history of 14-3-3s from 46 angiosperm species, including basal angiosperm Amborella and major lineage of ...

Evolutionary Changes of GT1 Provide Insights Into the Adaptation of Butterflies to Plant Feeding [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionGlycosyltransferase 1 (GT1) genes are involved in insect detoxification, olfactory perception, and endogenous metabolic regulation, and they play a role in the adaptation of butterflies to their specific feeding habits.

Phylogenomics: gene duplication, unrecognized paralogy and outgroup choice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Comparative genomics has revealed the ubiquity of gene and genome duplication and subsequent gene loss. In the case of gene duplication and subsequent loss, gene trees can differ from species trees, thus frequent gene duplication poses a challenge for ...

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 The process of gene duplication followed by gene loss or evolution of new functions has been studied extensively, yet the role gene duplication plays in the function and evolution of fertilization proteins is underappreciated.

Evolution through segmental duplications and losses: a Super-Reconciliation approach
Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2020 The classical gene and species tree reconciliation, used to infer the history of gene gain and loss explaining the evolution of gene families, assumes an independent evolution for each family.

Genome duplication and gene loss affect the evolution of heat shock transcription factor genes in legumes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Whole-genome duplication events (polyploidy events) and gene loss events have played important roles in the evolution of legumes. Here we show that the vast majority of Hsf gene duplications resulted from whole genome duplication events rather than ...

Patterns of gene evolution following duplications and speciations in vertebrates [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Background Eukaryotic genes typically form independent evolutionary lineages through either speciation or gene duplication events. Generally, gene copies resulting from speciation events (orthologs) are expected to maintain similarity over time with ...

The evolution of gene duplicates in angiosperms and the impact of protein-protein interactions and the mechanism of duplication [PDF]
, 2019 Gene duplicates, generated through either whole genome duplication (WGD) or small-scale duplication (SSD), are prominent in angiosperms and are believed to play an important role in adaptation and in generating evolutionary novelty.
